Pizza Only, forever...

Pizza Only FOREVER

I don't know about you...but I don't think it would be terrible to have Pizza Only, for the rest of my life...as long as it's good pizza and different toppings were available! I really cannot remember ever having a pizza I didn't enjoy. Can you??

Anyway...these spot illustrations were for this months' "J-14 Yikes!" magazine...which is a popular magazine for the "Hannah Montana"/ "High School Musical" set. Well, I'm guessing that based on all the photos of Miley Cyrus and Zac Efron throughout the magazine. Anyway, the illustrations were a silly and gross little "quiz" of sorts... i.e. "Would you rather eat nothing but pizza for the rest of your life or never eat pizza again?"

Stink Socks

"Would you rather wear the same socks for a month or the same underwear for a week?"
Yep..I'm serious...I didn't make up the scenarios...just drew the pictures.

Very Cold
"Would you rather wear your ski jacket all summer or your bathing suit all winter?"

Green Hair
"Would you rather shave your head or dye your hair neon green?"

My answers....
1. Even though I like pizza, I'd rather never eat it again. I'd cry about it though. I just don't think I could never not eat the occassional ice cream, slice of bacon, taco, or sushi roll. No can do.

2. Definitely socks.

3. Um, ski jacket? Unless I loose that 15 lbs! THEN I'll...um...yeah, no...no, I won't. Ski Jacket.

4. Since I've shaved my head before, I'd go with dying my hair neon green. (hopefully, it'd be one of those wash out dyes...)

Crushin'


Ever had an over-the-top crush on someone? Mine was Mark F. in 8th grade. I was crazy-in-love! {Like, maybe even a little stalker-like.} I cruised my bike by his house, often. I offered to help him out with his paper route. I wrote his name on lots of sheets of paper. I swooned over his tan. (It was the 80's in Southern Cal)Though, I must say, for a 12-13 year old, I had pretty good taste...this guy had the bluest eyes and lots of lashes.
Sadly, Mark never liked me back---but, he did dance with me once. Slow dance, even. And to this day, if I ever hear that song (which is rare, it was less popular Eagles song called "I can't tell you why")-- I think wistfully back to those early days when my hormones first kicked in! Ahhhhhhh! Those torturous, evil hormones!
The above illustration was drawn for QuizFest Magazine. In this particular illo's case---it was something like "Would you rather have your crushes name on your forehead or scream it in the cafeteria?" I'll post some of the other illos in the coming days

Poof and toot


Aw! The embarrassment of farting in front of your high school crush!!!

Thank god, this is NOT actually based one of my "most embarrassing moments"- Trust me, I have plenty different embarrassing moments I might illustrate someday, but this is not one of them. This illustration was drawn for a teeny-bopper magazine called "QuizFest"
